MACC could not find evidence that Najib knew about SRC money in his account, Dzulkifli tells court

KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court heard that the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) had suggested for Datuk Seri Najib Razak to be charged under Section 403 of the Penal Code over the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) scandal but it did not materialise as there was insufficient evidence to back up the case.

Former chief commissioner Tan Sri Dzulkifli Ahmad (pic) testified that the MACC also suggested an alternative charge under Section 23 of the MACC Act 2009.
